Nobody has explained it any better than you have in this short
paragraph, Scott. This is a national resource and the American people
should be the beneficiaries. The ones everyone seems to be forgetting
are the customers--the American people.
Everything's always about corporations anymore, not ordinary Americans.
Someone said they should make money the old fashioned way. Yea, by
satisfying customers, not by manipulating our laws in their favor.

Tony,
All of Netflix's customers are the beneficiary of this ruling, as well
as anyone who uses Youtube, Hulu or any other streaming service.
Netflix uses the most bandwidth because they have the most customers.
It isn't only the companies like these that benefit, it's their
customers. The Internet doesn't exist as some libertarian fantasy
world. The only ones that were going to benefit from from being able
to turn the hose off and on were the one's who own the hose, not the
one's who use it. Net neutrality is not a bad thing.

Unfortunately, so-called "neutrality" means that one company,
Netflix, can
corner it without paying for it. Netflix accounts for up to 35% of
internet
traffic, and is really the one and only beneficiary of this ruling.
Everybody else is subsidizing them. In any event, I'm just glad I'm
not a
regulator.
